I looked around the battle field. The battle was pretty evenly matched. Both sides had many casulties. Men lay scattered across the ground, their bodies mingled with the bodies of hellhounds and goblins. The King Black Dragon had arrows sticking out of all its legs and its left head was bleeding badly. But none of this seemed to bother it as it rampaged through the battlefield. Brave men stood before it but they were thrown aside as it thrashed about. Fire erupted from its mouth and the houses lining the battlefield burst into flames. Mages casted binding spells on it but they all splashed harmlessly off. Arrows pierced it in all directions but its hard scales remained tougher than ever. I knew that until it was dead we could not in this war. I ran forward but was thrown backward as a wind spell caught me in the face. I flew backward and landed with a crash on the hard ground.

"SING*R SINEESH!" I heard the mage shout. Flames erupted out of nowhere and narrowly missed my chest. I quickly got up and faced the mage.

But before the mage could even utter another word I had chopped off his head. The battle raged on for hours until night began to fall. The stars glittered overhead as the battle continued on. My muscles were aching and my head was spinning from the pain I was in. I looked around the battlefield once more. We were loosing men. Badly. The Zammorakian army had forced us back further and further into the city. We were now on the outskirts of the castle. If we didnt stop them soon they would get into the castle. Suddenly, a different horn blew. One I had never heard before. I looked up and standing at the gate was a fresh army of Gnomes and Dwarves.

"The Dwarves! Theyre allive??" A soldier next to me muttered. The army rushed forward and bellowed their battle cry. The horns blew one more time and the 2 armies collided. The King Black Dragon turned around and rushed forward to meet them in battle snarling and roaring in defiance. The Zammorakian army was now cauaght between the army of Varrock and the Gnomes and the Dwarves.

"Victory shall be ours!" The king shouted and ran further into the fray. I watched him go into the crowd of people before turning my attention back to the battle. Out of nowhere I was knocked off my feet. I fell to the ground and a Zammorakian soldier leapt on to me.

"Im going to rip you limb from limb!" He shouted. He stabbed at my chest and I felt the sword pierce through my armor and hit the party hat.

"NOO!" I shouted. With an unnatural strength I pushed the soldier off of my and **** is throat. I took the party hat out of my platebody and inspected it. Fortunatly, nothing had happened. It remained perfectly smooth. I placed it safely back in my platebody. Suddenly, I felt the ground benieth my feet tremble. I looked up and I was met by the King Black Dragon. It had seen the party hat! Its left head was missing and its right head was limp against its chest. Its center head was glaring down at me, ready to tear my body apart.

A deep growl admitted from its throat as I stared into its eyes. For the first time in this battle, I was afraid. My legs gave way and I fell to my knees. The King Black Dragon roared and fire spurted from its mouth and up into the sky.

"AGNAR!!" I heard someone off in the distance scream. It sounded like Eragna. I looked around and saw Eragna running at me only to be tackled to the ground byb a hellhound.

"RUN!!" I heard him scream before the hellhound's howl overtook his voice. I looked back at the King Black Dragon. Its eyes were as red as rubys, its teeth were red with the blood of men. It screeched once more before dipping its head and opening its mouth to finish me off. But suddenly I was swept off my feet and flew through the air. I landed, and dazed looked up to see what happened. I saw the King Black Dragon being confronted by someone. My eyes began to blur. Slowly I got to my feet only to fall back down to the ground. I heard the King Black Dragon roar again, and someone scream in pain. Their voice could only belong to one person.

It was the king of Varrock.



This snapped me back to reality. I staggered to my feet and ran toward the King Black Dragon. I saw the king bleeding badly standing in front of the dragon. The dragon brought its head back, then dove down to finish the king.

"NOOOOOO!!" I screamed and threw my sword with all my might at the King Black Dragon's head. The sword landed with a loud "squish" and blood poured from its head. It reared back howling in pain. Suddenly, I heard someone scream a spell behind me and I turned to see Eragna casting fire waves at the dragon. The dragon roared again and started to run away. Eragna followed in pursuit, and I ran up to the king.

"Sir, are you ok?" I asked. The king looked at me. His face was very pale.

The king's arm was red with blood. It had huge bite marks in it. I winced at the thought.

"Come on, lets get you out of here." I helped the king to his feet and helped him walk off the battlefield. I set him on the ground in front of the castle wall before looking back at the battle. Eragna was still in pursuit of the running dragon. The tide of the battle had turned. The goblins had already retreated and there were hardly any hellhounds left. Suddenly a horn broke through the sounds of battle. The Zammorakian troops were retreating! At the sound of the horn the troops turned around and started running for the gate.

"Keep on them!" Someone screamed. The Varrock army followed in hot pursuit as the Zammorakian army ran for their lives. I turned back to the king. He was smiling.

"We won." He said.

As the Zammorakian army retreated I helped the king back to his feet. The army of Varrock was now marching back to us, the king of Falador and the Duke of Lumbridge was at the front.

"We did it!" The king of Falador exclaimed, his face glowing.

"Yes, well done." The Duke of Lumbridge said. "Lets see the party hat, shall we?" I reached into my platebody and felt around for the party hat. A cold chill ran up my body. I smiled nervously.

"It's in here somewhere..." I muttered.

"Agnar?" I heard Eragna say. Now I was very afraid. I unclipped the top of my platebody and let it fall to the ground. To my horror nothing came out.

"I... I dont know where--" I began, but I stopped when I heard someone laughing. I looked up and saw the King Black Dragon flying over us, a rider on his back. In the rider's hand, was the party hat.

"No..." I heard the king say. The dragon began to fly off, the rider still laughing.

"SHOOT IT DOWN!!!" The Duke of Lumbridge commanded. Arrows flew up at the dragon. A few hit their mark but this didnt affect the dragon. It continued to fly off, the laughing growing fainter now. Everyone turned to look at me. Horror stricken I picked up my platebody. From where the sword had pierced it, there was a huge hole.

"It must have fallen out..." I said. I saw the faces of everyone around me fall. I had let everyone down. The mission had failed after all. I had let my father down... I had let all of Runescape down.

"There is nothing we can do now... It is in the hands of Zammorak." The king said.

I looked up at the sky and saw the sun peaking out between some clouds. It was then, I knew this war was not over.

I read The Last Party Hat's first thread and Behind Enemy Lines, the sequel. Both of theses are AMAZING. I've written three books and my dream is to become an author and your stories are spectacular. They've really inspired me. Highly detailed, descriptive, suspenseful and makes the reader enjoy it. As a suggestion you should copy this into a Word Processing Program.

Add a Table of Contents, Two Title pages, Dedication Page, and try out a Self-Publishing website. That is what I used and it is great. Really I am being honest though, your stories are marvelous and you should keep writing.

Thanks and Great Stories,
Asmo
